Koopa Troopas

Koopa Troopas are turtle-like creatures. They are the most common classification of Koopa. They come in multiple colors, including, green, red, blue, and yellow. They first walked on four legs, but in later games they have both hands and feet. Their shells may be used as projectiles, which have become a fixture in all Mario Kart games. Both Super Mario 64and the Paper Mario series include friendly Koopa Troopas, whose names include Koopa the Quick (SM64) and Kooper (Paper Mario). Flying versions with wings, first introduced in Super Mario Bros., are called Koopa Paratroopas. Both Koopa Troopas and Koopa Paratroopas make cameo appearances in Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Brawl as enemies. They are part of Bowser's army.

In Bowser's Kingdom, one of the main characters of the show is Hal the Koopa, who along with his friend Jeff the Goomba try to be villians in almost every episode, but always fail. Random Koopa Troopas are seen mostly in the series, such as the dumb Koopa when Jeff says he dosn't want another Koopa Troopa as a partner, asking 'What does a Mushroom do ?' or 'Who are we after?'.
